It's my birthday. I'm officially old. [Carrie on her 35th Birthday]

To me, old age is always fifteen years older than I am.

Maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had, and what you've learned from them, and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

Did you have an interesting 50th birthday?

Forty is the old age of youth; fifty is the youth of old age.

There is so much more than that little space from 14 to 40. And if you cut that off and begin to believe that you are not good past a certain age, then you end up scared and insecure and afraid. That is definitely NOT beautiful.
